[MP2] having trouble obtaining $r

[Steve Duran <st...@nmmcc.com>]

  Sorry, my last email was sent out without a subject.

  I'm having trouble getting the request object from mod_perl.  Here is the original attempt:

#use Apache2::RequestUtil;
use Apache2::compat;
use Apache;

my $r = Apache->request();

  This generates the following error:

Bareword "Apache2::ServerUtil::server_root" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/Apache2/compat.pm line 346.
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/Apache2/compat.pm line 429.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  This is the second attempt:

use Apache2::RequestUtil;
#use Apache2::compat;
#use Apache;

my $r = Apache2::RequestUtil->request;

  This produces the following error:

Can't locate object method "request" via package "Apache2::RequestUtil" 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  This is the corresponding section of the httpd.conf file.  Uncommenting the SetHandler directive causes the browser to display the code of the perl script.

LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so

PerlModule Apache2::compat

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
AddHandler perl-script .pl

Alias /auth/ "/web/ssldocs/foobar/auth/"

<Directory /web/ssldocs/foobar/auth> 
  AllowOverride None
  Options +ExecCGI
  #SetHandler perl-script
  PerlOptions +GlobalRequest 
</Directory>

  Please advise.

  Thanks,

  Steve

Have you tried to put use Apache2::RequestReq; along with the other use
statements? I ran into the same problem, except that I wanted
Apache2::ServerUtil->server, and that was fixed by including
Apache2::ServerRec as well as Apache2::ServerUtil. I'm not entirely sure
why this is, but it's probably related to the fact that
Apache2::[Server,Request]Util extendthe functionality of the
ServerRec/RequestRec classes.

Hopefully this'll fix it.

and where exactly do you configure, the registry module, Steve? I can't 
see it in this config.

What if you chance that config to:

<Directory /web/ssldocs/foobar/auth>
   AllowOverride None
   Options +ExecCGI
   SetHandler perl-script
   PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
</Directory>

Have you simply tried:

my $r = shift;


at the beginning of your handler? If you're using Apache::Registry, then 
your whole file is a handler so you can do that at the top.
